"If we went percentage by percentage she would probably beat KJ Apa's whiteness, and he is portraying a white character.
Which returns to my original point: whiteness, and more expansively, race, is a lie.
If Camila Mendes tried to join an exclusive women of color band in Brazil, they would laugh in her face."

Oh, I don't want him to be only an ass either, and I agree about the POC rep (though Veronica's doing pretty well fronting that). But in order to have a convincing romance with Betty, who's still a very good girl despite a few crazy moments, he'd kind of have to turn into a very good guy, like in the story you…

I hope not. Sorry, but I never liked that Betty/Reggie story. Maybe I'm biased from the way it was written by slutshamer C.J. Henderson (and that attitude showed in the way he wrote Ronnie), but it also took Reggie completely out of character. I know that was the point, but still, it made too many people decide that…
